7 INTRODUCTION The West Colfax Green Pilot project will direct enhancements to the public Right of Way of West Colfax Avenue. The goal is to provide improvements that have a positive effect on local businesses, improve quality of pedestrian experience and promote sustainability in the corridor. Recommendations are based on implementing elements of the grant awarded to the district in June of 2010 and directing future improvements and applications for funding in the area. The Green Pilot Masterplan provides a brief overview of existing conditions streetscape conditions and considers the impact future planned improvements in the surrounding area will have on the West Colfax Corridor. New projects that directly impact the street are in the works, including the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless site on Zenobia, the future West Denver Library site at Irving and the St. Anthony s site. In addition, the future Light Rail stops to the south at Federal, Knox, Perry and Sheridan will also provide more pedestrian connectivity to the site. Proposed improvements are based on the perceived vitality and culture of the neighborhood, the potential and constraints of existing conditions, the revitalization stemming from new and future developments and the hope of a sustainable and economically viable future for the West Colfax district. To date the Denver Office of Economic Development has awarded two Grants for streetscape improvements to conincide with the Denver Public Works street resurfacing project. The first includes installing solar pedestrian lights and street trees. The second includes landscaping the medians and installing pubic art in the medians at Sheridan and Irving. The West Colfax Business Improvement District is currently seeking funds for a third phase that will involve improvements to several transit stops along the corridor. 7

10 GOALS The primary objective of the Green Pilot is to add improvements to the streetscape that promote and improve the economic vitality of area businesses, and enhance neighborhood character. To accomplish this objective, several strategies will be utilized. Improve the pedestrian environment through transit shelters, lighting and signage. Promote sustainability through an enhanced awareness of future multi-modal transit opportunities, sustainable building products and renewable energy strategies. Enhance the neighborhood culture and identity through a consistent overlay of way-finding and district signage, community based public art projects and demonstration projects for a renewable and sustainable future. 10
11 ANALYSIS The existing streetscape experience along the West Colfax corridor is fragmented, visually incongruous and unsettling to the pedestrian. There is little visual harmony while driving or walking down the street. Many existing properties are poorly maintained or nonconforming to city standards. In addition, many of the large billboards and existing signs, while one of the unique elements of the streetscape, do not conform to the current city code and would have to be removed if improvements were made. The current environment is challenging, but making improvements such as adding solar pedestrian lighting and trees along with utilizing public art to create a district identity will be a strong benefit to the neighborhood. These enhancements will not on their own recreate the district into something new. But a few bold steps in the right direction along with the currently proposed projects in the district will hopefully become a catalyst for improvement. Developments on or directly adjacent to West Colfax Avenue: - St. Anthony s Redevelopment Site - Colorado Coalition for the Homeless project at Zenobia - New West Denver Library Site at Irving - Retailers currently under construction The future Gold Line along Clear Creek will add several Light Rail stops, creating opportunities for north/south pedestrian connections at: - Knox St. - Perry St. - Sheridan Blvd. - Federal Blvd. Additional pedestrian bridges over Clear Creek will create connections at: - Wolff St. - Tennyson St. Denver Public Works is currently undertaking the West Colfax Avenue Transportation Improvements project which will incorporate parallel parking in certain locations and slow traffic. Additionally, there are several currently proposed projects that will positively impact West Colfax. 11

13 ANALYSIS Scenes from the Street show narrow pedestrian spaces with few amenities. 13

15 EXISTING CONDITIONS / OPPORTUNITIES There are many opportunities to improve the quality of pedestran spaces on the street, including enhancing bus shelters, adding lighting and signage, street trees and incorporating public art that will help give identity to the district. The following graphics indicate potential areas for improvement. This analysis assisted in developing the masterplan later in the document. Tree planting along the entire corridor is likely unfeasible at the time, because no system presently exists to irrigate the trees. Instead, concentrating planting at either end of the district allows the West Colfax BID to install a central irrigation system at each location. Potential locations for trees along the corridor indicate locations where space is adequate to incorporate trees, but would require cooperation with local business owners to maintain. Improproving bus shelters with lighting, signage and shade, in addtion to adding solar pedestrian lighting will help create a safer, more pedestrian friendly environment. Focusing improvements around public transit makes sense, pedestrians spend time in these locations and it makes a statement about dedication to sustainability in the district. Incorporating district signage and public art willhelp give identity to the region and also engage the community to participate through community workshops or working with the local schools to incorporate student art. 15

25 RECOMMENDATIONS Improvements should enhance the pedestrian experience and character of the streetscape without creating negative impacts for adjacent business owners or creating unnecessary maintenance expenses. Considering these factors, the propsed enhancements to the right of way, include: - Landscape/trees in key locations - Wayfinding and District Signage - Solar pedestrian scale lighting - Bus Shelters and bus stop improvements - Seating - Public Art Improvements will be strategically located to make the biggest impact. Priorities are placed on bookending the corridor and areas that have transit and pedestrian connections. Additional locations for future improvements are also indicated and may be implemented as funds become available. Focus immediate budget on improving the bookends of the corridor - Landscape Median at Sheridan, include art piece signifying the district - Landscape Median and sidewalks at Irving, include larger art piece in median - Improve Existing West Colfax welcome sign Install Solar pedestrian Lighting and wayfinding signage as budget allows near bus shelters, then parallel parking prioritizing as follows: - From Irving to Knox - From Osceola to Quitman (Perry) - From Stuart to Utica (Tennyson) - From Xavier to Winona (Wolff) Future Improvements - Improve bus stops by adding solar lighting, shade, seating - Enhance existing bus shelters by adding solar lighting, art - Add wayfinding signage along West Colfax and at Light Rail Stations to direct users to local businesses. - Coordinate improvements with Future developments - Create connection with East Colfax with art component that extends from east to west - Add banners to promote the district 25
